I’m a writer, journalist, and cultural commentator whose work sits at the intersection of music, fashion, business, and identity. For 20 years, I’ve helped audiences understand the forces shaping pop culture — the artists, the innovators, the business, and the narratives that define the moment.

My reporting and commentary has appeared across TIME, Rolling Stone, Interview, Billboard, and Complex. I regularly lend my perspective to television, radio, and live speaking engagements, including CNN, NPR, BBC, The Breakfast Club, SiriusXM, and universities like NYU and UCLA.

I am the author of Fashion Killa: How Hip-Hop Revolutionized High Fashion and the forthcoming The Blueprint: Inside the Business of Roc-A-Fella Records.

I translate what’s happening in culture — and why it matters.
